    John Bowkett - Top Gent

    Just had my Super10 to John Bowkett for tuning and servicing. All done within the week for the price of the postage both ways. Rifle is bang on the limit, and feels far smoother and easier to shoot than before.

    I know it's been said before, but I am going to say it again. The man is a complete gent, very pleasant to deal with and doesn't half know his BSAs!

    Thanks again John. I know where to come when I need anything else doing!

    Is there a reason he can't / won't?

    Why don't you ask him? He can only say no! IIRC didn't he design some of the Falcons?

    Think you will find that falcons are Titan (Mr B`s Comopany) copies........

    It was my Falcon and John only done it as a favour to me ....He won't touch Falcons so not worth asking.

    I agree with all above, I have meet some great people since I started shooting and JB is one of the top guys nothing too much trouble for John and yes he does know his BSA's after all he designed most of um.
    I owe alot to John he has looked after me and spent hours on the phone over the past few years.
    Top guy indeed.

    Bargain then, if it's just for the price of the postage

    JB's a top bloke, a more trustworthy chap you could not hope to deal with.
